*blech* Romeny's stance on immigration alone puts him on top of any Bush. Romney was "equal rights" in employment etc, not pro marriage, and didn't even like the idea of civil unions for gays.
On a 10 scale. Bush 1, Romney 5. Full disclosure. I liked Newt.
My Major Issues are:
Pro God (Romney 1; Bush 1)
Pro Life (Romney 0; Bush 1/2)
Pro Gun (Romney 1/2; Bush 1)
Pro Natural Marriage (Romney 0; Bush 1)
Pro Security (to include borders etc.) (Romney 1; Bush 0)
Romney = 2.5
Bush = 3.5
I liked Newt.

Newt was the last good thing to come from the GOP with the 1994 election. Too bad he appears nuts sometimes like his bench appearance with Pelosi.
